The law firm will not respond. Any correspondent with any basic knowledge of the US legal system let would know that. Further, if the correspondent did make contact, the firm's representatives would have directed the correspondent to the client for comment. Seems that didn't happen here.
Most correspondents know that there is this called client confidentiality. This is just shabby and irresponsible reporting. Suffice it to say, we will not acknowledge or work with any media outlet that continues along these lines; we will not "...be forthcoming at all" and will only work with outlets that have proven to be fair, balanced and responsible.
The entire category is being "investigated" by the SEC. CNN's Martin Spurlock did an hour long piece last Sunday on Bitcoin. A rep from the SEC was a part of that segment. Paraphrasing the SEC Rep, "Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency is here to stay and as such, we need to take a look at it."
Taking statements out of context and using them for gain of eyesballs seems the SOP among many publications in this category. Perhaps the only thing of value in this piece is the fact that their are a lot of crazy things that are and will happen in this emerging category to which was alluded to in this thread...quite eloquently I might ad.

It just seems pretty armature for him to write a piece with no attempt to gather any facts.
John, do you have input?
Jonas is the owner of CCN and has been a friend for a while now.

Let me know if you have any comment on the article that I can put in. Not sure if the author is awake or not.
The ads seem to be booked for 1 month (background ad) but we still have some available now, or you can book it at a later point if we can pre-arrange it.

Hi Jonas,
Did you approve this?
https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/paycoin-promises-unkept/I was also just informed that we were not reached out for any comment. I can not imagine you would allow that to happen?
On a different note, BTC.com will be launching soon. How far out are your ads booked?

When the reporters see a lot of activity somewhere, they want to report it to drive traffic to their own articles. Sorry to see that you take a hit for it, but that's the way it is sometimes. However, false statements and facts should not be posted and if they are, will be removed by me or editors as soon as we find out.
The article is now:
The North American Bitcoin Conference scheduled for January 16-18 in Miami is partially sponsored by the controversial company Paybase. Full Disclosure: Paybase also advertises with Cryptocoins News website.
In a Reddit post appearing today, the event organizer, Moe Levin explained to some of the angry Reddit posters that the sponsorship of the event would go on as planned. The center of controversy for many reddit posters circled around the CEO of GAW Miners operation- Josh Garza.
The view of Miami Conference organizers remains neutral - as it probably should. It is probably reasonable to acknowledge that one can count the age of the oldest bitcoin companies on one hand. Judges, juries, regulators and security agencies are still trying to understand what separates good promising bitcoin companies from bad ones when the entire business models have upended everything they've ever dealt with. Most state-sponsored government agencies around the world refuse to give anybody in the blockchain industry even a look. It's probably unrealistic to expect smaller event organizers with limited resources to make those draconian decisions for us. Is it possible that the angry Reddit visitors have a point? Are Josh's statements and his grand plans believable?
Does it really matter?
This conference can not take place in many parts of the world because of the limits to free speech. In those areas, one political party decides the message and having a currency that can't be entirely controlled by themselves, can't be fathomed. Having the option to contemplate two sides of issues represents liberty. It is the currency of freedom and democracy. Bitcoin is unique because it allows for such transparency itself.
Bitcoin inherently resists censorship. Bitcoin thrives because it is neutral and independent. It's logical that a conference promoter for businesses built on the foundation of bitcoin would also champion the core qualities of bitcoin itself. We bring honor to bitcoin by allowing those who we may disagree with personally to have their voice heard.
What would the critics on Reddit think if a different country or religious leader demanded removal of the sponsorships and speaking engagements? One might predict that they would likely be up in arms with such censorship. Taking the thought experiment further: what if we allowed Reddit bitcoin bloggers and visitors to provide final clearance for our conference speaking engagements beforehand? This way we could hear only the truly useful or worthwhile according to the opinions of /r/bitcoin subreddit. We can remove any controversies and expel any dangerous thoughts or experiments that dare innovate beyond our imaginations. Centralized government departments function this way. A few 'insiders' decide themselves what is good for everybody else because they believe they always know what is best.
If Josh can "tickle the ears" of new customers and cast his spell that convinces new clients to send their hard earned money his way – that will be his right. Others can cringe and complain, and they too have the perfect right to stand up and give their opinion and wisdom to convince them the other way. Exposing these inner workings allows people to develop deeper understanding of “WHY” something could be harmful or dangerous. People might benefit from being informed rather than having somebody already deciding for them what is valuable or not. Truth tends to float to the top over time. In the meantime, some people will suffer from greed and human frailties that insist they lose money. Just when you make something idiotproof, they make a better idiot.
[divider]CCN[/divider]
Bitcoin is a massive paradigm changing technology, and it is expected to be controversial as it should. These little controversies are likely just the tip of the iceberg that may go on another 50 years of the world changing the disruption. We might as well get used to it. Bring on the challenges, the disagreements, and the different points of view that will challenge entire governments one day. Perhaps it will do us good to let it all air out at the conference.
Perhaps it is time to break out a big bag of popcorn and enjoy these warm-up fights. These are small time events compared to the rock hard sweeping challenges that fate seems destined to hurl at us in the paradigm change that will likely disrupt almost everything.

Know who the author is, trying to find out what happened to it.
From now on Josh, I've asked the editors to send me articles about Paycoin/Paybase, GAW or you, before they are published. I'll contact you before an article is published if I'm in doubt that there are any errors. Hope this works for you.

https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/tnabc-miami-bitcoin-conference-defends-paybase-debate-decision/This is the second libelous article your publication has released in 24 hours! The conference just emailed me and we are considering filing a joint lawsuit.
Not only did they make claims about us. They said this about them:
"In their view, Josh has been less-than-honest with the bitcoin community with his company dealings, and they smell another scam coming that would re-tarnish the digital currency brand. They’ve taken it upon themselves the duty of crowd-sourced self-policing in the bitcoin space."
This completely made up and needs to be immediately removed!
Jonas, I really like you, but you need to get your arms around this. It's going to create a liability for you
